THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED OVER TIME AND WAS NOTICED APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS BACK. I JUST DIDN'T KNOW I COULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNTIL TODAY WHEN I GOOGLED "HOW TO TREAT TOYOTA SHINY STICKY/MELTED DASH BOARD". I'VE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE SENT OUT A LETTER STATING THAT THERE WAS A WARRANTY EXTENSION TO ANYONE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT AS AN OWNER I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY NOTIFICATION OF THIS WARRANTY. I'VE HAD VERY VISUAL DISTRACTION WHEN DRIVING IN THE DIRECTION OF THE SUN. THE DASHBOARD IS CONSTANTLY BEING DAMAGED WHEN WIPED WITH A CLEAN/WET CLOTH. TOYOTA NOW STATES I AM OUT OF LUCK BECAUSE I MISSED THE WARRANTY BY 13 BUSINESS DAYS. THIS IS A HORRENDOUS BUSINESS PRACTICE TO NOT REPLACE A KNOWN ISSUE. IT HAS BECOME A HAZARD ON THE ROAD AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY.

THE TORQUE CONVERTER WENT BAD. THE CAR SHUDDERED WHEN CHANGING GEARS. ESPECIALLY AT LOW SPEEDS.THE CAR HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING. I HAD THE TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACED TWO MONTHS AGO AND NOW THE PROBLEM IS STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN. TOYOTA SAYS THAT MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THEIR RECALL AND THE PROBLEM AND THE EXPENSE IS ALL MINE.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ABS, SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, RPM AND A/C JUMPS ON AND OFF ALL OVER THE PLACE. I TOOK IT TO A TOYOTA DEALER, COULD NOT FIND WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT THEY ASSUMED IT MAY BE THE ABS MODULE OR SOME OTHER MODULES MAY NOT BE TALKING TO EACH OTHER. I HAVE RESEARCHED ON LINE TOYOTA CAMRY FORUMS AND AND FOUND THEY ARE LOTS OF TOYOTA CAMRY OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUES. THIS IS A VERY SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IM NOT ABLE TO SEE AT THE SPEED MY CAR IS GOING WHEN DRIVING IT BECAUSE TACHOMETER GAUGES AMONG THE OTHERS GAUGES WORKING INTERMITTENT (ON AND OFF) I REQUEST FOR TOYOTA TO PLACE A RECALL FOR ALL TOYOTA CAMRY HAVING THIS MAYOR SAFETY ELECTRONICS PROBLEMS. I WOULD NOT MIND PAYING FOR REPAIR IF TOYOTA DEALER KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS BUT THEY DON'T KNOW AND IF THE REPAIR DID NOT EXCEED OCER THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR SOMETHING THAT THE MANUFACTURE HAS FAILED TO ADDRESSED AND FIX. THANK YOU.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLS ARE BECOMING NON RESPONSIVE STARTING AT LOWER RIGHT HAND CORNER. GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS THIS IS VERY, VERY COMMON IN 2014 AND 2015 TOYOTAS. CAN' T PAIR PHONE WITH BLUETOOTH ANYMORE, SINCE "ADD" BUTTON IS IN LOWER RIGHT CORNER OF SCREEN. ALSO VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING, WHEN BUTTONS NEVER OR INTERMITTENTLY RESPOND! CONTACTED TOYOTA DEALERS AND TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS. ONE DEALER ADMITTED BEING AWARE OF THE ISSUE, BUT ALL SAY TOYOTA HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL OR WARRANTY EXTENSION! SAFETY ISSUE WITH DRIVER DISTRACTION!!!!

THIS CAR ONLY HAS 120 MILES ON IT, BUT THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE I TOOK DELIVERY. UPON INITIAL ACCELERATION FROM A DEAD STOP, THERE IS A LONG DEAD ZONE IN THE ACCELERATOR LEADING TO POOR THROTTLE RESPONSE. IT'S HARD TO TELL WHEN THE VEHICLE IS GOING TO BEGIN MOVING. ONCE MOVING, THE TRANSMISSION JUMPS IN AND OUT OF VARIOUS GEARS, AND THE CAR CAN'T DECIDE WHICH GEAR TO USE. IT ALSO SLAMS IN AND OUT OF SOME GEARS WITH NO CONSISTENCY. IT SEEMS LIKE A PROGRAM ISSUE, BUT IT NEEDS TO BE HANDLED VERY SOON OR THIS TRANSMISSION MAY NOT LAST 10-20K MILES.

SERVICE BRAKES
VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING IN TRAFFIC ON I-526 IN CHARLESTON COUNTY, SC. THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME PUT ON BREAKS DUE TO A TRUCK MERGING IN FRONT OF HIS VEHICLE. THE BRAKING SYSTEM IN MY CAR, BRAKED, THEN THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD AS BRAKES WERE APPLIED. IN ADDITION A VERY LOUD NOISE OCCURRED INSIDE THE VEHICLE WHICH WAS VERY STARTLING. MY VEHICLE ENDED UP UNDER THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME. THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD AFTER THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM CAME ON AND THE LOUD ALARM IN THE INTERIOR WAS NOT WHAT HAD HAPPENED WITH THE SYSTEM BEFORE. ONE TIME BEFORE THE BRAKING SYSTEM APPLIED ITSELF AND THE DASHBOARD LIGHT CAME ON AND I SEEM TO RECALL THERE WAS A BEEP OR SOME SOUND THAT WAS VERY BRIEF.

DASHBOARD CREATES A VERY SHINY SURFACE MAKING IT HARD TO PROPERLY SEE THE ROAD. IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS MELTING. WHEN I TOUCH IT, IT STICKS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHILE I DRIVE. I LIVE IN FLORIDA SO I HAD TO PUT A DASHBOARD COVER WHICH STILL DOESN STAY FIXED.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR STARTED TO SAG TWO OR THREE YEARS AGO. RECENTLY IT JUST HANGS DOWN IN THE DRIVER'S FACE AND WILL NOT STAY IN THE STOWED POSITION. TOYOTA KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM AND HAS A WARRANTY EXTENSION PROGRAM TO DEAL WITH IT THAT I FOUND OUT ABOUT WHEN I WENT ONLINE TO LOOK FOR A REPLACEMENT. I CALLED TOYOTA'S CUSTOMER SATISFACTION LINE AND WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR'S VIN# FALLS OUTSIDE THE PARAMETERS OF THE PROGRAM. THE COVERED PROBLEM OBVIOUSLY EXISTS ON MY VEHICLE. IT IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE, AS YOU CANNOT SEE OUT OF THE VEHICLE WITH THE VISOR DOWN.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE SUN VISOR AT DRIVER'S SIDE HAS BECOME DETACHED. IT CAN NO LONGER BE HELD IT ITS POSITION. PLEASE SEE PICTURE ATTACHED. TOYOTA HAD ISSUED A RECALL ON 08/01/2012 (DETAILS AVAILABLE AT THIS LINK: HTTP://MEDIA.FIXED-OPS.COM/TOY_CAMPAIGNS/POL12-03.PDF), HOWEVER, AS PER TOYOTA, FREE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT IS ONLY APPLICABLE "7 YEARS FROM THE DATE-OF-FIRST-USE (REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE)". I HAVE SERVICED MY TOYOTA AT TOYOTA DEALERSHIP EVERY 5,000 MILES FROM 2012 TILL DATE, HOWEVER, I WAS NEITHER INFORMED OF THIS RECALL NOR HAD THE ITEM REPLACED BY TOYOTA PROACTIVELY DUE TO RECALL ISSUED. HENCE TOYOTA MUST NOT ASK ME TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR NOW.
